We wrote recently about some of the ways that the coronavirus pandemic has affected the adult industry in Japan.
We didn't talk about prostitution much except for the closure of Tobita Shinchi, a famous red-light district in Osaka, and outbreaks associated with Kabukicho in Tokyo.
It's a sure thing that people aren't going out to red-light districts or brothels, but what about other types of fuzoku services such as delivery health?
Well, it seems that call girls are still available and may even be busier than usual as lots more people hang around at home with little to do except think ...
With the coronavirus pandemic still raging all over the world, many people are stuck at home. If they are stuck there with a partner, the chances are they are passing the time by getting intimate together. There's nothing quite like sex to take one's mind off a crisis. Failing that, there's always masturbation, so we are sure that traffic for porn sites is going through the roof right now.
Things in Japan just got more serious, with the declaration last night of a state of emergency, although the current number of infections are still much lower than other major industrialized nations.
How ...
The tabloid, Otakara, claims that the unnamed former SKE48 idol is now working at Osaka's Tobita Shinchi red-light district as a prostitute.
According to the magazine, the idol offers blow jobs with a condom for ¥16,000, though kissing is not allowed. Full sex with a condom is also apparently possible.
The idol joined the group in 2009 but was an underdog in the elections. Hmm...we wonder who it could be.
We have no way of verifying the truth behind this short of visiting every establishment in Tobita Shinchi (sounds like a fun assignment!), nor have we yet seen the full article in the ...
One of this blog's ongoing obsessions is the open secret in the Japanese idol world, be it gravure, music, porn, or general tarento and celebrities: the casting couch.
And it really is rampant, it seems, in almost all corners of the industry. Even among seiyu/seiyuu (voice actresses).
The "sexy actress" (a euphemism for porn star used by the mainstream media) Cocona Yuzuki recently shared some of these secrets on television.
A former chika (underground) idol, seiyuu, and now adult video star, Cocona (or Kokona) Yuzuki appeared on a late-night TV Tokyo show on June 6.
She explained that if ...
The famed Tobita Shinchi red light district in Osaka will close down during the upcoming Group of 20 summit in late June, according to media reports
Tobita Shinchi is a rare example of an old-style red light district (yukaku) in Japan, similar to how Yoshiwara used to be in Tokyo, featuring rows of licensed establishments in which young ladies sit in open doorways waiting for patrons.
This time it's not the authorities actually doing the closing; it's kind of a case of self-censorship. Apparently the Tobita Shinchi association itself has agreed to "restrain" its activities during the ...
The kinkiness of Tokyo goes international! That's if you believe the latest tabloid headlines.
As recently reported by the reputable likes of Mail Online, a 23-year-old model from Azerbaijan has had her virginity purchased online for around $2.6 million by an unnamed "Tokyo politician."
Today based in Turkey, the slinky Mahbuba Mammadzada is apparently one of Azerbaijan's most successful models, but that didn't stop her from keeping her virginity in order to offer it to the highest bidder on Cinderella Escorts.
The winning Japanese politico apparently outbid a London lawyer and a ...
Every month in Japanese adult video brings many new porn debuts (shinjin). In October alone, we've spotted debuts from the svelte Mari Sano (佐野まり), 42-year-old jukujo mother (with milky breasts) Miyuki Nishino (西野美幸), the sporty Mana Tsuchiya (土谷まな), college girl Hinami-chan (ひなみちゃん), and Chihiro Konoha (木葉ちひろ). The latter two are purported to be a mere 20 years old, like Ichika Hoshimiya, who also released her own impressive first AV title this month.
How is an avid AV fan meant to keep up? And that's just the major debuts, let alone all the ...
In August, members of the Japanese national basketball team were sent home from the Asian Games in disgrace after being caught paying for sex in Jakarta. It propelled the ethics of paying for sex into the headlines.
Asian Boss, who previously posted interesting videos like interviews with former porn stars Emiri Okazaki and Taka Kato, here interviewed Japanese people on the streets of Tokyo to gauge their opinions on the world's oldest profession.
The video was posted a few weeks ago but we only spotted it yesterday. Nonetheless, it's a timeless topic (at least in our world), so we ...
Shannon Danielle Wong, a Canadian national, has been arrested in Japan for entering into a fake marriage for visa reasons.
Tokyo Metropolitan Police arrested the 29-year-old Wong, who admits the charges, as well as her "husband" Narimichi Sasaki, a construction worker. The pair met at a cosplay event in Kabukicho while Wong was technically a student and then entered an arrangement to marry on paper in June 2016.
Wong paid Sasaki an initial ¥700,000 and then was monthly payments of ¥30,000 each. The total fee for Sasaki's participation in the scam was to be ¥1 million yen.
It ...
In case you have ever wondered where your taxes went, take a peep into the lurid world of politicians' "travel expenses."
In the case of Ken Namikawa, the young mayor of Tenri City in Nara Prefecture, he made two trips to Tokyo in February and June. The provincial politico was determined to make the most out of his time in the capital, it seems, since he procured the services of delivery health call girls at his hotel room for intimate nude "massages".
He has since apologized at a press conference on August 31st after Shunkan Shincho made allegations about the 38-year-old's ...
